"The old man also knows a lot about the way of the merchants, and the merchants from all sides sell nothing more than local specialties, and they buy and sell in the west to make the difference, so you are so sure that your method will make them pay obediently?" Yang Yanhe was a little unconvinced, businessmen value profit over righteousness, how could they obediently take out a lot of silver? What's more, the rule of officials has been a problem since ancient times, so many officials in the country and the dynasty can hardly guarantee that no one is not interested in the immediate interests, so how can we ensure that the money can be collected smoothly according to the law?

Seeing that Yang Yanhe questioned, Yang Ming picked up Yang Yanhe's brush on the table as if he was in his own home, dipped it in ink and sketched it on the spread of rice paper, while delineating: "In fact, as you said, most of them sell local specialties, in fact, there are three reasons: first, it is difficult to transport goods, whether it is from south to north or from north to south, not to mention the most critical thing is that the bumps on the road are easy to damage, even if they take the waterway, So from this point of view, freight is actually one of the keys to stopping traders! ”

Yang Yanhe nodded, as Yang Ming said, the trip to the north and south is not only a long distance, but also the road is tortuous, there are water and land routes, and the merchants naturally carry bulk goods, so they are constantly moving up and down, not to mention the damage caused by the weather on both sides, even those bumps and damage are a lot. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"The second point is because of the excesses and miscellaneous taxes along the way!" Speaking of this, Yang Ming couldn't help but look at Yang Yanhe helplessly, and saw that he was still staring at himself and continued: "Although these businessmen can deal with some officials, but only a part, such as the place of departure or destination, as for the places on the way, they don't have so much ability, and it is impossible to bet heavily on the officials who change every four years, after all, there are a lot of benefits to be harvested on the ground of their own homes, and those officials who are halfway through the road can't take care of them, and they naturally won't spend a lot of money to buy them if they want to be reasonable. Therefore, there are naturally a lot of taxes and miscellaneous taxes, which is the second key to stopping business! ”

What Yang Ming said was very reasonable, and although Yang Yanhe's face was not very good-looking, he still nodded. It is indeed impossible for a businessman to buy all the officials, it is not cost-effective, and it is really not worth it, and he agrees with this point of view, since he has previously admitted that officials make profits in the local area, he is now more helpless than having a bad old face.

Not bad. It's just helpless!

This is the helplessness of being the first assistant of one dynasty, but now he can only pin his hopes on a young man of one generation of children, and the serious sense of powerlessness can be clearly felt even if Yang Ming is not deeply involved in the world.

It's just that the words still have to be said.

"This third point is also a summary of the first two points!" Yang Ming continued: "Because of the long distance, the expenses along the way are too great. Therefore, many businessmen can only make one trip a year or two times a year when they know that they can make money from the south to the north, but if the freight is no longer troublesome and the officials in various places are no longer exploiting, do you think they will go to the merchant three or four times? Travel lightly, you can make money by grinding your mouth, and they don't want to be tempted? ”

Yang Yanhe suddenly realized that since the post ticket can deliver letters to the people, it is not difficult to transport the goods, after all, the post station is a pipeline, the distance is closer, not to mention the things on the official face, it is naturally impossible for officials to have the idea of playing the goods above, but in this way, another question arises, what do the officials in those places eat? There is no oil and water. Aren't these magistrates making a fuss?

With this question, Yang Yanhe thought for a while before slowly speaking: "Zile, you didn't think of the scholar doctor in this plan?" ”

This is actually a reminder to Yang Ming that this has violated the interests of the Shidafu Group.

Yang Ming smiled, pointed to the drawings he had just drawn and said to Yang Yanhe: "There is no doubt about the interests of the scholars, there is no need to worry about this!" You see, this is a post station, and the merchants can hand over the goods to the post station guards, and after the post guards' inspections, they will register and make a book, and then the goods and letters of the day will be collected by the post station and sent to the big state capitals, such as Hongcheng to Chengdu Mansion. Then continue to be sent to other adjacent places by Chengdu Fu Transit, and the way to send it away is actually the way of the post ticket, but this post station is to set up two servants! ”

"Two servants?" Yang Yanhe was a little puzzled, since the post station was responsible for transporting goods, why did he need to set up two servants?

"Yes, two servants need to be set up!" Yang Ming explained: "This matter is actually attached to the post station. The post station is equivalent to providing a channel to help transport us to pay them wages, and this thing itself is indeed owned by local officials, and each official automatically receives the benefits in it, I call him a freight group, and all the officials in the world have a share, even if it is a small official, they can share a few taels of silver from it every month. And these two servants need to calculate the money that needs to be paid to the post station for the delivery of goods, and then naturally need to pay taxes to the imperial court! ”

"The kid thinks that since it is a business, then as an official, as a scholar, he naturally needs to take the lead in paying taxes, not only the income of the scholar needs to pay taxes, but also which businessmen need to pay taxes, hehe!"

Hearing this, Yang Ming's plan has been completely finished, Yang Yanhe is not stupid, he understands that the imperial court benefits, officials benefit and businessmen seem to have been facilitated, they can not only save the hard work along the way, but also save a lot of money, although there is still tax to be paid, but compared to those exploits, it is nothing, why can you only run once this year? If this is the case, as long as there are business opportunities, then the businessman can continue to use the post station as the basis outside, and only need to send a shopkeeper to operate directly!

But who is the one who has been diverted?

Yang Yanhe thought about it for a long time, but he didn't see whose interests had been lost, and this was what he was most concerned about!

"Good old man, explain the twists and turns in this, it's old! Old! In the end, it's still the world of you young people, you're old! ”

Yang Yanhe really doesn't understand, but it's not okay to be unconvinced, but he naturally won't say anything he can't understand. After all, officials like Yang Yanhe have been exposed to nothing more than the idyllic self-sufficiency management model of agriculture and mulberry before, but Yang Ming's method seems to be much more profound, although he can understand some of the things in it, but he can't see the reason clearly, especially this freight group, obviously the three parties have benefited, but why is no one damaged?

In his thinking, since someone has benefited, someone must have been damaged for so long, and since they have all benefited, there must be someone who has been damaged where he can't see, the difference is that he used to see things very shallowly, and he could see it at a glance, but Yang Ming's method is not easy to see!
